Two sailors assigned to the USS George Washington died within days of each other shortly after the aircraft carrier arrived in Japan, officials and family members said.
Two years ago, the George Washington was beset by a spate of suicides.
On Nov. 22 — the day the ship reached Yokosuka, Japan — Cuyler Condon was found unresponsive in an on-base hotel, officials said.
The USS George Washington made headlines in 2022 for a string of suicides while it was docked and undergoing a lengthy overhaul at the Newport News Shipyard in Virginia from 2017 to 2023.
